Room Request! Casa de Campo

This retreat in La Romana, Dominican Republic brings luxury to the next level. There are, of course, your typical five-star rooms with ocean views and access to a plethora of amenities. For the athletically-inclined, there are multiple golf courses, tennis courts, an equestrian center, a shooting center and a gym. If you’re looking to relax, there’s a spa, boat charters or of course, the Caribbean Sea.

But it’s the property’s standalone villas that truly make for an over-the-top vacation experience. Beyoncé and Jay-Z were spotted staying in one in 2014, and the Kardashians filmed two episodes of Keeping Up at the property in 2012. To get the inside scoop on the lavish villas and other A-list guests, we spoke to the resort’s General Manager Daniel Hernandez.
